Meticulously Inspect Your Shears Before And After Sharpening

Using a cell phone camera compare and test your sharpened scissors to a new pair of scissors.

Always inspect all scissors first before you purchase...

Do not purchase shears if tension screw is too short. Screw must be flush with tension knob to maintain proper setting.

Some scissors with plastic or rubber bushings will lock up or constantly lose tension and even come apart if not kept in proper setting. This is caused by stripping the soft threading and rendering the scissors useless. Even oiling will erode the bushings.

IS YOUR SHARPENER RUINING YOUR SHEARS?

If you have a camera phone on hand simply snap a photo of your shears before and after sharpening and the answer is painfully obvious.

YOU CAN BORROW, BUT NEVER LOAN!

Never loan or share your scissors. No two stylists cut alike and every stylist pressures their shears differently.

CRIME PAYS!

Grand Larceny defined by law is when someone steals money or property valued over $500. The same can be said if someone destroys another’s Property in this case a scissor or scissors valued over $500. Everyday unqualified and improperly trained sharpeners ruin at least one or more scissors in every salon they service. Everyday literally THOUSANDS of dollars in scissors’ are being destroyed by salon sharpeners and mail order vendors. The sad irony is that they are being paid by the very stylist whose scissors they are ruining.

Buyer Beware Update!

For years Shear Integrity has been trying to warn our customers in the Tri-State area about Chinese knock offs. We have been telling anyone who would listen that these shears were bought in bulk for as little as $20 and being sold to unsuspecting stylist for as high as $350+. Shear Integrity stands corrected. These SAME shears are actually bought for $5-$10 and are now being dumped in the salons for $20-$30. We don’t know if it’s because Shear Integrity finally got the word out or because of the ongoing RECESSION. Most of these scissors are Factory Seconds or Used and Refurbished and re-sold to unsuspecting stylist. Before you hand over your hard earn money to a shady sales rep simply compare several scissors for the best edge before making a purchase.
